Obama, McCain, Lindsee, Wash Post and NY Times all suggest we need to fear and hate - and maybe fight - Putin's Russia
I still haven't seen a good, calmly argued explanation why
If Russia conquered us, would they lower our taxes to Russia's 10 percent flat rate? Would they ensure that orphans get a mom and a dad when they're adopted? Would they end discriminatory laws against traditional judeo-Christian beliefs and practices? Would they stop bureaucrats from persecuting Christian bakers?
The Left might hate Russia for its low taxes and Christian culture, but why must I?
Putin was once a GRU or KGB officer. They’re attacking ISIS rather than arming them. They invented the AK-47. Cold soup?
Communism ?
Pray for lower caviar prices. Beluga in particular.
and by “the Left” I include McCain and Lindsee. They’re cultural leftists and supporters of the biggest government protect of all - endless warfare
When did a low tax rate equal “communism”?
They don’t have Obamacare?
It should be ironic that one of the few places in the West that cultural Marxism isn’t running amuck is Russia; however, CM was always ever them taking a dump in someone else’s back yard in order to befoul the landscape and they rationally never permitted it to flourish at home.
Yeah, lets be them.
+1
Putin is not going to rush through the Fulda Gap and conquer Europe.
Putin is not going to nuke Washington DC.
Putin is not an idiot — he is no threat to us.
So, With just a few weeks left in his administration, Obama, with help from the usual RINO suspects, gives every appearance of trying to start a war with Russia.
Hmmmmmmmmm.
Why would he do that?
Cold War’s over man, we won. Now Russians want to be capitalists, get rich, have fun.
More like I said in my last post: the communist were behind cultural Marxism as a way to destroy us ... they sanely avoided it themselves.
Suggest you read a book titled Witness by Whitaker Chambers.
Fascist dictatorship with global colonialist ambitions. Want to reimpose hegemony over the formerly enslaved satellite states in Europe.
Russia’s population is shrinking fast, its economy is in free fall, it’s at war with its neighbors, the rule of law is essentially nonexistent, local and regional governments are dominated by strongmen, corruption is universal and the economy is significantly smaller than Italy’s. The public health infrastructure is in a state of collapse, drug use and HIV are widespread, alcoholism almost universal.
Yeah, lets be them.
If that’s the case why are we worried about them?
Putin’ an ex-Communist autocrat who invades his neighbors. He is a dictator who rigs his elections, and imprisons or kills his opponents.
He is occasionally useful, but never trust him...
Agreed. They have not embraced capitalism and many still believe in Communism. Also, aren’t they atheistic.
Communism? The Communist Party of China is not even Communist any longer. The only real Communists left are the North Koreans and the faculty at major U.S. universities.
lol. Hadn’t thought of that reason. Maybe that’s why Obama hates them
